Some of our past pupils were in the top group hoping to go for their proficiency exam at the end of the year.
D Block Basecamp 2019
— John A. Shedd, Salt from My Attic
Indeed, you can get to see how strong, creative, resilient, humorous and gutsy boys really are when they are outside – doing what young boys can do best – making rafts, making fires, shooting targets with pellet guns, abseiling off rock faces and scrambling up kopjes to observe the views below.
Even the boys surprised themselves on this Basecamp and were ‘better ships that they ever imagined’ – some enjoyed camping for the first time, walked further than they thought they could, cooked their own supper on an open fire, ate no tuck for a few days (and survived), learnt knots and how to make shelters!

Learner Guides Imire Field Trip 2019

The night drive always adds interest – my last visit to Imire we saw an aardvaak but he was nowhere to be found this time.
We were invited to observe a tracker dog at work following tracks left by a ‘poacher’ – an amazing animal which will be a great benefit to Imire once it is fully trained.

Interact Induction Speech by Zivai Sinemani (Head of School) 2019

A pleasant Afternoon to the Rector and Mrs Blackett; Rotarians, Mr and Mrs Griggs; The Head of Extracurricular Activities, Mrs. Shoesmith.
The word Interact stands for international action. The international objectives are to develop leadership skills and personal integrity, to demonstrate helpfulness and respect for others, to understand the value of individual responsibility and hard work and to advance international understanding and goodwill. The Rotary Club being the Mother of Interact has similar principles. For more than 110 years, Rotary members have been addressing challenges around the world. It started with the vision of one man — Paul Harris. The Chicago attorney formed the Rotary Club of Chicago on 23 February 1905, so professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas, form meaningful, lifelong friendships, and give back to their communities. Rotary’s name came from the group’s early practice of rotating meetings among the offices of its members. Since then the organization has expanded, reaching just over 100 nations. Over the years the club has achieved remarkable things including fighting against polio in 1979 with a project to vaccinate 6 million children in the Philippines. Today, polio remains endemic in only three countries — down from 125 in 1988. This just goes to show how privileged we are to be a part of something bigger than ourselves that has helped the lives of millions of people across the globe.
